Daily News | Can Joel Embiid stay healthy? His MVP case and the Sixers’ season depend on it. | Keith Pompey
Could the 76ers’ standout remain healthy? How many games would he miss? Would the five-time All-Star starter be on a minutes restriction?
Embiid and the Sixers organization is aware of that. However, don’t expect him to alter his aggression in the remaining 24 games to shore up health for the postseason. But as good as Harden, 32, is, this is Embiid’s team. He’s in the prime of his career and in the midst of a memorable offensive season. Embiid has scored 30 or more points in 26 of the 46 games he’s played this season, including nine games with at least 40 points.
Embiid, who ended up missing 21 of last season’s 72 games, finished fourth in scoring at 28.5 points per game and 10th in rebounds with 10.6 per game. Missing a considerable amount of games contributed to his being a distant MVP runner-up to Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokić.
